It’s been rightly said, “Love is giving someone the power to destroy you but trusting them not to.” Relationships are fragile, so is love, and trust plays a significant and undying role in sustaining relationships.
Perhaps, the best proof of love is trust. But then, trusting someone isn’t an easy thing to do. Love is strongest when you know how to let your trust take over the doubts as it bears the testimony to a successful relationship. Here’s what trusting your partner to not cheat actually looks like…
